SOME OF WORTH 5 DRESSES.
We went to Worth's and asked TO see
the handsomest dresses. What strikes one
at first glance IS the unrivaled combina-
tions OF color, and the unique effect at
tanned by great simplicity, where others
seek them by innumerable complications.
The underskirts were untrimmed; there
was no Gorcealment of the selvage edge.
On the contrary, 1t was conspicuously dis
played in many dresses, and thus gave great
freedom in drapery effect One dress was
OF gray brocaded satin, sumptuous in ma
terial. The underskirt was a long, IN
trimmed train; the drapery was of the
same material, and the fullness was dis
posed OF IN most novel way. Instead of
being caught up in plaits or folds the ma
terial was tied in punches, the entire sur
face giving the effect of small pouches.

securely knotted. The sleeves were large
and bouffant from the shoulder to the ell

SWEET GIRL GRADUATES WITH GOLDEN
HAIR.
Fashions dictum this year for commence
ment dresses is all white. The designs for
making are simple and girlish, and the
favorite garniture is ribbon, which is used
in profusion. There are bows on the
shoulders, the waist on the sleeves, sup
porting the skirt draperies and sashes, and
they are draped diagonally across the front.
sides or back and finished at the ends in
graceful fiots. Lace is a favorite material,
point d'esprit, platte Val and Fedora being
much used. Point d'esprit dresses often
have honnce at the bottom of the skirt
and the lower part of the drapery bordered
with rows of narrow satin or MORE ribbon
set above deep hem. a pretty idea is to
make these dresses over a white lawn. II
Is very effective and not half so expensive
as made over silk. Skirts are cut walking
length, waists unusually high, or some
times pointed back and front, or cut square,
so most becoming to The wearer. Sleeves
are made in puffs finished with a frill at
the elbow, or full at the top and gathered
into band at the wrist and finished with
a band Of ribbon and oow.-Brook{ya Eaqte.

when, as is always the case more or less
with buttoned shoe, there is too much
room given the foot at those two points.
Not that over tight lacing is advocated, but
just so much as will cause the foot to feel
the support of the shoe Ladies who walk
a great deal, especially those having hi yh
insteps followed out underneath. will GER
tainly find more ease in lace shoe than in
a buttoned one. Dealers will often tell MS
they are not in fashion, but thew can al
ways be had or made. Skaters need laced
shoe for the same reasons. Gentlemen are
wiser than We in this respect The major
ity of men have learned to appreciate the
merits of lace boot and now wear them.-

FEW WORDS ABOUT ToURNUREs.
The tournure is rather smaller than dur
ing the winter. but it will not disappear at
present. | have seen during the past week
many new and coquettish models in under
skirts, more or less pulled out with steel or
whalebone, and have been completely edi-
fed on the subject, and now fully believe
